Nope. Totally Kyle Williams' fault. |

The one thing Smith does well is he able to read defenses and make pre snap adjustments. Mahomes so far who knows but he needs work.

This is the most disappointing year ever for the AFC. It's almost a foregone conclusion that the Patriots make the SB again unless Brady gets hurt.
Tannehill is done and the rest of the division dusks so that's 6 wins alone. Brady never losses at home so that's 6 games. They have their best offense ever IMO. Think about this. Brady has made the SB in 46% of his years starting healthy for the Pats. There's a better chance that Tom Brady makes the SB than Steph Curry has making a 3 point shot. |

The 49ers scored as many points as the New England Patriots did in the Super Bowl vs. the Giants. Williams fumbled twice, the final time in Giants territory, so yeah. |

He was so steamed that he said to Vahe and Blair "One of you fellas take this question". It's stupid. The Chiefs aren't trading Alex Smith this preaseason. |

If Cutler doesn't unretire (and I'm better he won't), Osweiler, McCarron or someone else's backup makes more sense than Smith, because he doesn't fit the Gase offense. Hell, Mike Glennon would be a better and more logical trade target. |
I doubt they trade him either. But if the Dolphins call and offer a 1st... :shrug:

12th/16th in DVOA and late-season weighted DVOA respectively. I get the argument for saying it's an above average defense at worst, but to say they were the best by most objective measures doesn't follow. |
Quote:
2001 - 63.9 comp %, 2,814 yds, 18 TDs, 12 INTs, 86.5 Rate 2003 - 60.9 compl %, 3620 yds, 23 TDs, 12 INTs, 85.9 Rate 2004 - 60.8 compl %, 3692 yds, 28 TDs, 14 INTs, 92.6 Rate Nothing spectacular there. They won mostly because of their D back then. Now they win mostly because of their O but their D is still very good (#8 in total yds, #1 in league ppg last year giving up just 15.6 ppg). Pats are more than just Tom Brady. Obviously he is the main reason but there is a lot of reasons for the Pats success. It isn't just him. They went 11-5 with Matt Cassell as their QB not that long ago. Team game. So it is not a forgone conclusion that they will win. There's a lot that can happen. Maybe their D or Oline sucks this year and if that is the case they won't win again. So you never know. Quote:

In 2003 Brady was 6th in the league in passing, 10th in TDs and had SEVEN game-winning drives. In 2004 he was 10th in the league in passing, 6th in TDs, 9th in yards per attempt and 5th in yards per completion. Those aren't game manager numbers. Those are top ten passing numbers. |

Move along. |
Not sure why so many people have a vested interest in a mediocre QB been the best guy on the field

Quote:
Tannehill has a $96 Million contract that pays him through 2020. Like i said, Smith would be a 1 year rental. |
Quote:
Fun to think about? Sure. But not grounded in reality. |
Quote:
5000 yards in a season was unheard of just a few years ago. Now there is someone doing it every season. cant compare stats from when they allowed defense to play to stats in 2017. |
Quote:
Facts, not fiction. Brady's prolific passing was a huge part of those championship teams in 2003 and 2004. |

Shut the hell up , Geno. |

You apparently have no clue about the rules changes to the passing game that made everything explode in the last 10 years. |

I mean Brady had to throw for 354 yards and 3 TD to beat the Panthers in the Super Bowl, and the next season he had to put up 24 points without much of a running game to beat Philly, but yeah, those teams were all defense.
|
Or 28 TDs. ROFL
|
:facepalm:
The league has changed a ton in the past several years. Everyone's stats have inflated in terms of QB play. Why do you think the sport is as popular as ever? If Brady was top 10 in those categories, he was clearly a really productive QB at the time. |

That's paltry. Look up steve young and see what he was doing the decade prior. Move along, Geno. |
Tom Brady was far better in the second half of his career. End of story.

Quote:
Yet Brady's stats from the early 2000s that you frown upon are still better than Smith at his best. :facepalm: |
Quote:
Peyton Manning Daunte Culpepper Donovan McNabb Brett Favre Tom Brady Trent Green Drew Brees Matt Hasselbeck Ben Roethlisberger Carson Palmer There was a LOT of QB talent in the league back then. When former Super Bowl QBs like Drew Bledsoe were the mediocre QBs of the day you know it was more than fine. You're just digging some idiotic hole deeper for god knows what reason. Why tear down Brady's top ten passing seasons? What's the point? |
I thought this was the ****ing training camp thread.

Back on topic
Training camp is hard for me to get excited about because if one player looks good it means in a sense another one of our players is looking bad. I am glad to hear Mahomes, DJ, Alex Smith and Tyreek Hill are all doing well. Hope they keep it up. I'd like to hear more about Beenie Logan but I understand it's probably hard for dlineman to show much in training camp. Ahhhh when does regular season start again? |

Everyone is anticipating preseason to see our future football savior, Mahomes. |

Comparing stats 14 years apart is some dumb shit. Brady has always made big plays when it counts. He's managed games, but he's never been a game manager.

The guy whose post I replied to is one of the idiots who thinks football is an individual sport. It is not. I have stats to back up my point. Pats Ranks 2001 Offense Rank Total Yds - #19 PPG - #6 2001 Passing Yds Rank - #22 2001 Defense Rank Total Yds - #8 PPG - #6 2003 Offense Rank - Total Yds - #17 PPG - #12 2003 Passing Yds Rank #9 2003 Defense Rank - Total Tds - # 7 PPG - #1 2004 Offense Rank Total Yds - #7 PPG -#4 2004 Passing Yds Rank #11 2004 Defense Rank Total Yds - #9 PPG - #2 So don't give me that BS that Brady was the main reason they won their first three championships. He wasn't. Their defense was. Eventually he became the GOAT but lets give credit where credit is due. Pats D is usually always good when they win the championships. You can also look at the year the Packers won their SB with Rodgers. I think their D was top 5 in yds and #2 in ppg. Now I'm not saying Alex is as good as those guys but lets not act like Alex is the only QB that needs help. They all do. Defense is still and always will be extremely important when it comes to winning championships. Quote:

Can we please take the non-training camp stuff into their own threads?
Those of us not lucky enough to live in KC actually want to hear about the god-damn training camp and not a bunch of pissing and moaning about other crap (to include the "Oh GOD NOT AGAIN Pat/Alex bullshit). |
Quote:
Pats 24, Eagles 21 Thank god that elite defense won those games for the Pats and Brady didn't have to perform like a top 10 passer. |
